Switching clients and need to add all my torrents again
-
I have to switch torrent clients since I'm having problems. I'm using a very old crappy program called FDM. The problem is I have like 1,500 torrents seeding in it so I have to download all of the .torrent files again to add them to the new client. The FDM program doesn't keep a backup of each torrent like most torrent clients.
I've read online that some torrent sites allow you to download all of the little torrent files from your history on the site at once in a zip file. Is this available here or do I need to search and locate each video and click download manually?

If you look in your profile, under "Details & Stats" you will find a section that says:
Show seeding torrents
Show leeching torrents
Show completed torrents
Show uploaded torrentsAssuming you have at-least one of each category...
Click on the "Show completed torrents" (and perhaps "Show uploaded torrents") and you will see the names (and links) to all of the desired torrents....No zip file that I'm aware of - so this might take some time...

@bi4smooth Hey there, thanks for that info. I clicked on 'completed torrents' but that list only seems to included torrents from 2021 even though I have been seeding ones going back to around 2016. I guess I'll have to go through the torrents in my old client one at time and look up each one on the site, download it, and add it to the new client.
Would you happen to know if running two clients at the same time will screw anything up?

No - you should be fine... I run multiple clients all the time.

@bi4smooth Ok, thanks again
